FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The instant disclosure relates to an electrical connector, and more particular to a board-to-board electrical connector.

BACKGROUND

Consumer electronics tend to become smaller, thinner, and lighter. Hence, electrical connections are usually established between different circuit boards in the consumer electronics. For such electronic device, as the size of the electronic device is small, the electronic device has a relatively limited internal space. Therefore, the circuit boards are electrically connected with each other through board-to-board (BTB) electrical connector(s), so that the electronic device can have better space utilization.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The BTB electrical connector is an electrical connector assembly. The electrical connector assembly comprises a first connector and a second connector corresponding to the first connector. The first connector is arranged with a plurality of first terminals and a plurality of fastening pieces. The second connector is arranged with a plurality of second terminals and a plurality of positioning pieces. When the first connector is inserted into the second connector, the first terminals are mated with the second terminals to achieve the signal transmission between two printed circuit boards. In general, an elastic arm extends from the positioning piece, and the elastic arm is an inwardly extending structure. As a result, the elastic arms for contacting the fastening pieces are narrow arm structures with small contact areas.

An embodiment of the instant disclosure provides a first connector. The first connector comprises an insulated body, a plurality of first terminals, and a plurality of fastening members. The insulated body comprises a pair of first side walls and a pair of first end walls. The pair of first side walls and the pair of first end walls are enclosed to form a first connection space. A position of the second side surface is different from a position of the first side surface. The first terminals are held in the pair of first side walls. Each of the fastening members comprises a first covering plate, a plurality of first side plates, a plurality of second side plates. Each of the first covering plates is held in an outer surface of each of the first end walls. An end top plate extends from each of the first covering plates and covers a top portion of each of the first end walls. An end contact sheet is in the first connection space and bends inwardly from the end top plate, and the end contact sheet covers an inner surface of each of the first end walls. The first side plates bend and extend from two sides of the end top plate of each of the first covering plates. The second side plates bend and extend from two sides of the end top plate of each of the first covering plates toward the second side surfaces.

In some embodiments, a width between two opposite of the first side surfaces of the pair of first side walls is greater than a width between two opposite of the second side surfaces of the pair of first side walls.

In some embodiments, a width between two opposite of the first side plates is greater than a width between two opposite of the second side plates.

In some embodiments, a surface of each of the first side walls comprises a plurality of blocks. Each of the blocks is between each of the first side plates and each of the second side plates adjacent to the first side plate.

In some embodiments, a bottom end of each of the first covering plates comprises a plurality of legs extending out of each of the first side walls.

Another embodiment of the instant disclosure provides a second connector for mating with the foregoing first connector. The second connector comprises an insulated base, a plurality of second terminals, and a plurality of positioning members. The insulated base comprises a pair of second side walls and a pair of second end walls. The pair of second side walls and the pair of second end walls are enclosed to form a second connection space. The insulated base comprises a guiding column in an inner portion of the second connection space. A position of the second side surface is different from a positon of the first side surface. The second terminals are respectively held in the pair of second side walls and two sides of the guiding column. Each of the positioning members comprises a second covering plate and a plurality of second side plates. Each of the second covering plates is held in an outer surface of each of the second end walls. An end top plate extends from each of the second covering plates and covers a top portion of each of the second end walls. An end contact sheet is in the second connection space and bends inwardly from the end top plate, and the end contact sheet covers an inner surface of each of the second end walls. Each of the second side plates is held in an outer surface of each of the second side walls. A first side top plate and a second side top plate extend from each of the second side plates and cover a top portion of each of the second side walls. Each of the second side plates comprises a side contact sheet and a plurality of contact arms. Each of the side contact sheets is in the second connection space and bends inwardly from each of the first side plates, and each of the side contact sheets covers each of the first side surfaces. Each of the contact arms is in the second connection space and bends inwardly from each of the second side top plates, and each of the contact arms covers each of the second side surfaces.

In some embodiments, a width between two opposite of the first side surfaces of the pair of second side walls is less than a width between two opposite of the second side surfaces of the pair of second side walls.

In some embodiments, each of the contact arms comprises an extension arm and an elastic arm. The extension arm extends toward an inner portion of the second connection space. The elastic arm extends and bends from an end portion of the extension arm.

In some embodiments, a width between two opposite of the elastic arms is less than a width between two opposite of the side contact sheets.

In some embodiments, a width between two opposite of the side contact sheets is less than a width between two opposite of the first side surfaces.

According to one or some embodiments of the instant disclosure, the fastening member is an enclosing structure. The first covering plates, the first side plates, and the second side plates respectively cover the pair of first side walls and the pair of first end walls of the insulated body, so that the first covering plates, the first side plates, and the second side plates provide multi-point contacts. Accordingly, as the connector has two or more contact points, the stability of current output can be ensured, the requirements for large-current transmission can be achieved, and the heat generated by the elements can be reduced. The connector is applicable for quick charging purposes.

According to one or some embodiments of the instant disclosure, the fastening member has a first side plate and a second side plate formed as a stair structure for protecting the insulated body. The configuration of the fastening member is suitable for mating with the contact arm of the second connector, so that the contact arm is configured to extend to form the extension arm and the elastic arm with longer lengths, providing better elastic recovery effect, thereby reducing the risk of elastic fatigue as well as the risk of contact failure. Moreover, the extension arm and the elastic arm of the contact arm of the second connector have the same width (instead of an inwardly extending structure), and the contact area between the elastic arm and the fastening member is large.

According to one or some embodiments of the instant disclosure, the positioning member is a large-area enclosing structure. The second covering plates and the second side plates respectively cover the pair of second side walls and the pair of second end walls of the insulated base. Hence, impacts from outside can be stood effectively and the mating/unmating times for the connector can be increased. Moreover, the end contact sheets, the side contact sheets, and the contact arms provide multi-point contacts. Accordingly, as the connector has two or more contact points, the stability of large current output can be ensured, and the mating force for the connector can be increased.
